Overview of Arai Helmets White Defiant Pro-Cruise Helmet - 814595

30% stronger than standard fiberglass in extension and bending resistance. Commonly referred to as F.A.S.T. (Fiberglass Aerospace Shell Technology) construction due to its development heritage.

Outwards-Flaring Hyper-Ridge

Flares out to provide a larger opening so that the helmet is easier to get on and off. The reinforcement band circles the bottom of the shell, adding strength and lowering the helmet's center of gravity.

VAS Shield Mechanism

The Variable Axis System (VAS) incorporates a moving pivot point. by combining the pin trajectory, which is based on an imaginary axis, with the two trajectories of the double-pivot point slot, the shield opens and closes smoothly, even with the much lower shield mount position. A dual-function lever releases both the side cover/pod and shield pin for quick and simple shield removal.

Extreme Peripheral View

Wide eye port for enhanced peripheral view

LRS Shield Removal

Allows for shield changing without tools or removal of the side pods

De-Mist Lock

Faceshield tab pushes forward to open the shield and help clear any fog that may appear.

Pull-down Air Spoilers

Helps minimize wind noise. Also aids with the extraction of the hot air from the face area.

Cowl Vent Design

Exhausts heat more efficiently. The vents are sculpted into the rear shell shape and work in concert with the AirWing to greatly add lateral helmet stability at speed (Arai test riders reported this benefit is most noticeable when popping up into the airflow when braking).

Brow Vent Channeling Ventilation

Gives you more cooling air in the temple and/or forehead area without holes in the critical forehead area of the shell or impact-absorbing liner.

IR Front-Spoiler Edge Trim

Creates a stabilizing downforce, reducing wind noise between the shoulder and the bottom of the helmet.

IC4 Duct Intake Vents

Have a slide-gate closure that seals more completely when closed.

ACR4 Duct

Allows air to pass over and through the vent, accelerating exhaust flow when open and reducing drag when closed.

FCS® Cheek Pad Design

A spring support adds just the right amount of pressure when worn and releases to create extra room when the helmet is removed. The 5mm peel-away layer offers unparalleled custom fitting.

Emergency-Release Cheek Pads

Allow for easier access to an injured rider by sliding out via integrated pull tabs built into the underside of the cheek pads

Sound-Adsorbing Ear-Pad Foam

A layer of foam in the ear pocket to help block assorted noises from reaching your ears.

Removable/Replaceable Neck Roll

Easily removes and re-installs for thorough washing or replacement if damaged.

Liner

New exclusive liner with antimicrobial material stays fresher between cleanings

Pro Shade System

Offers a quick, convenient shade to block ambient light, while functioning as an aerodynamic peak in the raised positioning, helping to block sudden bursts of light. Long sun-visor available. Compatible options available to fit Arai models using either the VAS or SAI shield systems.

SAI Shield

The latest generation of Arai's Super AdSis shield system, designed for the new 10mm wider eye port. Removes and installs in seconds

SAI Max Vision Pinlock Shield

Combines enhanced field of view of the SAI eye port with a full eye-port cavity to accept the Pinlock 100% Max Vision anti-fog lens.
